    Whataboutism. Not interested.

    Of course welfare is always branded as 'wasteful' by those who don't need it...

    So is it incompetence or malice or a bit of both?

    White Christianity seething in its own soup.

    It's a naked redistribution if it's paid for by welfare cuts like Medicare and so called 'entitlement reform' (code for 'we don't like the poor once they're born')

    It represents a redistribution however you label it or dress it up.

    A cut in real terms: yours and Rob's posts just now have confirmed that to me. You can't polish a turd I'm afraid!

    And so it begins:Ryan says Republicans to target welfare, Medicare, Medicaid spending in 2018 The vultures are indeed circling over the weak and vulnerable, enjoying their rich pickings from them. About as unChristian as it gets.

    White Christianity seething in its own soup.

    As I understand it - correct me if I'm wrong - the 2010 PAYGO proviso means an automatic cut in Medicare benefits of up to $25 billion next year - unless a cross party deal to the contrary is struck, which seems unlikely. So there you have it: a naked cut adversely affecting the poor to fund...

    White Christianity seething in its own soup.

    I don't give a tinker's cuss what your Constitution says, just what the Bible says. And the Bible clearly establishes an unequivocal preference for the poor, whether you look at just the Old Testament or the Gospels. I don't particularly care how that is delivered, whether that be by government...

    White Christianity seething in its own soup.

    Depends what sort of evangelicals you mean there. Trump has been kind to the Franklin Graham right-wing bunch for sure - so far. He has bigger fish to fry. And I think that a Congressional Tax Bill that cuts welfare for the poorest including cutting medical aid for sick children to give tax...

    Jerusalem

    Presuming you mean 'internationally recognised state' by 'nation', the Palestinian Authority is recognised as a state by 136 countries and, since 2012, has been granted the status of a non-member observer state by the UN.
